At the former site of Campo, Vulcania is new and in the Village near the outdoor theater. From Food Network stars Bryan Voltaggio and his Michelin-starred brother Michael Voltaggio offer new and classic Italian fare. Whether for dinner, happy hour, or just some wood-fired pizzas or appetizers - the food itself is always fresh!

Great micro brews and eatery. During the summer months, enjoy casual outdoor dining at picnic tables - often with live music. Ask if they are currently brewing fresh root beer for your younger ones too!

We love this place for its whiskey, bourbon, gin, and other distilled spirits - and the cocktail creations they offer. Great menu of “small plate” offerings too.

Whitebark is located inside the Westin Hotel, which is an easy walk from the condo! Contemporary but comfortable ambiance. You can go for a full meal or simply stop by for evening drinks. Whitebark doesn't always advertise their happy-hour, which has a great menu too -and the hours change on occasion- so call ahead to confirm hours on the days you're in town.
